Salmon patties

I am always looking for new ways to add more fish into my diet.... and what better way than yummy salmon patties... using canned salmon makes these super easy to whip up and on the table in no time at all.  Sometimes I saute a little finely minced onion & green pepper in butter & olive oil to add to these but most of the time I don't...they are good either way...I use the small cans of skinless, boneless salmon, drained but you can use just one large can, drained well, just make sure you take any grey skin off & remove the bones as well..... Enjoy


Salmon patties


2 cans salmon, drained  (skinless & boneless kinds) you can find them right next to the canned tuna fish
1 egg
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs (plus more for coating the patties)
1/4 cup each finely diced green pepper & onion, sauteed in olive oil & butter, cooled (optional)
1 T. white wine
1 T. Dijon mustard
1/3 cup mayo
1/3 cup milk
 3 dashes hot sauce
1 T worchester sauce
seasonings of your choice ( I used garlic & onion powder, parsley flakes & no salt seasoning, a pinch of seasoned salt & pepper)
Oil
Parmesan cheese
Lemon wedges (optional)

In large bowl place all of the ingredients mixing very well with a fork. Place 1/4" of oil in a frying pan over medium heat.  Shape salmon mixture into patties & place on a plate.  Sprinkle patties with breadcrumbs on each side.  Place patties in the hot oil and saute until golden brown.  Turn patties over and saute until golden brown on the other side.  Sprinkle patties with a little parmesan cheese while hot and serve with lemon wedges to sprinkle over them.  Enjoy
